In this episode of Byron’s Loom, Byron is joined once again by guests Amara Lynch and Steven Joiner. Amara is completing her doctoral research on anti-oppression parenting. In this conversation, she offers us a glimpse of her work with a group of parents who are trying to raise White sons in ways that prepare them to support a more socially just society. This is a deeply personal project for Amara because she is one of those parents, herself. Steven, a White man and seasoned social justice activist, advocate, and educator, adds his own experience and wisdom to the conversation. This our second episode with Steven and Amara. You may want to check out their previous conversion on Managing Disappointment here. They will be returning a third installment once Amara finishes her graduate program in the fall. We hope you find this discussion as invigorating and valuable as we did! Thanks for listening!

Organizing White Men for Collective Liberation (OWMCL), is referenced in the conversation. OWMCL is a national network mobilizing white men to learn, grow, and take action against white supremacy and patriarchy. You can find out more on their website.
